What We Offer

The Barnet Intensive Enablement Team (IET) provides community-based rehabilitation treatment and support for adults with moderate to severe mental health difficulties, usually with a diagnosis of psychosis, who live in supported or residential accommodation to support them with their mental health needs. We primarily work with clients living in residential or supported accommodation in the London Borough of Barnet but we also under take social care reviews for clients placed by Barnet in other areas.

The team is multi-disciplinary and consists of professionals from a number of backgrounds including Nursing, Social Work, Psychiatry, Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Assessment and Enablement Officers, Associate Mental Health Workers and Support Workers. We also have social work and nursing students on placement with us and are supported by a dedicated Admin team.

The care delivered is focused on Rehabilitation and Enablement. As such, much of our work is focused around working with you as an individual and also working closely with support staff at your residential or supported accommodation. We work collaboratively to build on your strengths and focus on helping you to achieve what is important to you.

How You Can Access Our Service

You have to be currently living in supported or residential accommodation in the London Borough of Barnet (or funded by the London Borough of Barnet for social care reviews), to access our service. Most of our clients are referred through locality teams in Barnet or out of borough Community Mental Health Teams who have placed clients at residential care homes or supported accommodation in the borough.

Who Is This Service For
